What do you consider to be the best kind of pipe? (glass, metal, etc) Or bongs and stuff, for that matter.
I'm curious, how do the different materials affect the experience? I've used pretty much just glass.

Glass bongs. They smoke the best. Period.

I agree that glass is probably the best commonly used material to smoke out of. I really like bongs but I don't have the money for a glass bong so I just make them homemade. Not as nice but it gets the job done.

there is nothing like a good rip from any glass peice. In my experience metal gets too hot after awhile, and it kind cheapens the experience...
What I would recommend however is a nice wooden piece, you'll get a smooth distinct flavor.

I actually like my old faithful metal bowl, because it's easy to scre apart to de-resinate. It doesn't get hot too often, but when it does I can just hold this plastic band in the middle. It tastes good too, because I've been using it for over a year.

glass ...glass and more glass.. my spoons are glass.. my hitters are glass...and my bongs are glass...i will never go back to using metal again. Personally i think it leaves a wizard of oz taste in my mouth(like im the tinman).
Only downside to glass, i found is when you go fo a roady with your friends: everyone gets high as fuck and you stop for munchies and your friend forgets to put your pipe into your cozy(aka pipe pillow) and it smashes on the cement and your out 50 60 bucks ...but anyway ...glass is smoking choice!

Glass all the way. I hate the way metal ones taste for one and two you cant boil them or clean them as thoroughly cause you cant use chemicals on them really. I like glass too cause you can get incredible looking pieces that are just nice to look at.

Check the glass you are buying. Cheap pipes are just that. Cheap. Try and go with pyrex or some other strong glass.

i agree that glass are good, but id like to try wood at some point.
I have a stone pipe from mexico. It taste nice and clean and it a real deep bowl.
But im getting a glass peice and a glass or acryllic bong in a few weeks.

i think the flavor comes out most in a glass pipe, but u get alot higher faster with a glass bong.

No doubt there is some strong glass around, but it's all about the way it hits the ground. I've seen glass drop 4' and make it, but sometimes 1' is all it takes. I feel like there should be vote as to who has all lost a glass piece, I know part of myself died the day I lost this piece, the blue piece with the curl in it broke a few days ago when I was fleeing a possible citation for drinking and possesion. Can't go down willing, you know.

Brass cones and aluminium stempipes shoved in a bottle. povvo hey.
had some ceramic bongs but they always break. Im smoke outdoors coz of my asmatic missus and kiddie. school of hard knocks. :(
when im out n about i go with a little brass pipe. tiny and easy to stash anywhere without breaking.
got some little screw end ones that you load and close. can chuck it in your pocket packed and ready. pull it out, light like a cigarette behind your hand, pull and back in the pocket. used to use it walking to the bus stop along a main road. then u blow out a cloud :rolleyes:
dude asked me for a ciggy once hehe.

Glass is good, I don't have a glass pipe personally but my friends have one. I despise acrylic... after awhile it degrades and breaks on you. I was cleaning my friends acrylic 4-person bong... it cracked down both sides. So now I have to try to fix it with clear caulking or something.
I personally have a little personal pipe made of bone, best shit in the world. Then I have a nice wood pipe, long stem... looks like it's right out of Lord of the Rings (it's called Shire). Also to round everything out, I have a ceramic water bong, with shotgun. I need a better bowl for that though, the one it came with is just too small.
I need to get pictures of my stuff.

If you do smoke resin (which some people do) glass is way better. You can get the resin off easy, it oesn't hold a smell, so if you clean it well, the cops won;t have shit on you, and they're pretty. i think your question's been answered, bro.
And BTW, I have a little bone pipe too, real deep bowl and it's sturdy as hell. But, the resin won't come off, cause most bone pipes aren't finished well.

You just need some Isoproply Alcohol to clean your pipes and bongs real good. It's not expensive, and is available at most headshops and pharmacies. It just dissolves the resin, it's great. If you don't care about saving your resin, or are too lazy to try to save it, use that alcohol crap. My wood pipe came out like new after I cleaned it, the bone one doesn't come out as clean, but it still cleans up really nice.
For bong chambers that are hard to reach, this is an ideal solution. Just add some salt in with the alcohol and shake it around in there and it should clean it. Unless you let it build up alot then it will take some more effort, but it will clean it sooner or later.
It's way better than any soap solution, and you just need to rinse it with warm water after.

My favorite pipe to use is a glass bubbler. Its a step up from a spoon (and others), so I get a nice high and I don't get burnt out as much like smoking from a water bong.
